Deep Thoughts

from the Missional Church Consultation at Luther Seminary this weekend:

The Bible does a lot of jobs. It serves best if we let it do all of them and let people find their place in the story.
(Allen Hilton)

Communal prayer as participation in God's descent, as Holy Spirit inserting us into God's mission whose boundaries we cannot define; always contemplation and struggle, deeply rooted in solidarity with the world. (Dirk Lange)

Church of the Apostles (Seattle) a church of "downward mobility," bores deep into tradition and takes it with radical seriousness, e.g. what would it look like if baptismal promises were actually true? (Karen Ward)

"Just to be a community is an apologetic for God in the world." (Karen Ward)
